Not only does this win help protect LGBTQ+, reproductive, & voting rights in WI, it also sends a clear message: We won’t let Elon Musk buy our courts.

When I wrote my camps book, people sometimes had difficulty understanding how concentration-camp regimes were proud of what they were doing and wanted attention for it, even as they also hoped to keep many aspects secret and terrorize vulnerable classes. Anyway, this is what that looks like.
